Dave Brubeck

The Bach Choir of Bethlehem and the Hermann J. Wiemer Winery in New York's Finger Lakes region present their fifth collaboration of music, wine and food Saturday. Members of the choir and select soloists will present a flavorful program, with the winery's 100 year-old scissor-trussed barn as the event's unique setting.

Highlights of the program, which benefits the choir, will include "The True Story of Cinderella" by Warren Martin for 12 solo voices, piano and chimes; music by J.S. Bach and Dave Brubeck; and songs from Schubert's collection of lieder, Opus 5, and selections from musical theater and the American Songbook, featuring soprano Rosa Lamoreaux.
